Ontdek hoe een onverharde weg, bekend als Pine Street, veranderde in een "Paris on the Prairie" en later in de Magnificent Mile, het belangrijkste winkelgebied van de stad. Luister naar de geheimen en verhalen achter de opvallende gebouwen aan North Michigan Avenue die architectonische iconen zijn geworden.
De straat is de afgelopen 100 jaar ontwikkeld en bevat historisch geïnspireerde architectuur in Parijse, gotische, neoklassieke en art-decostijlen verspreid over moderne en 21e-eeuwse gebouwen. Je ziet wolkenkrabbers, verticale winkelcentra, hotels, woontorens en sommige gebouwen die zijn ontworpen om de merken te belichamen die binnen worden verkocht.

Docent was fantastic and always learn something new
Ron Roman led the tour and he was absolutely wonderful! Deep knowledge of the history of the buildings and very caring presentation-he obviously loves
being a docent and giving joy to other people. We have been on seven or eight tours in the last year and we always learn something new. Well done!

Magnificent Mile
My friend and I are visiting from Nashville in Houston and wanted to explore a little bit of the architecture of the city. We went on a tour with Ron, (who was absolutely fantastic!!), and learned a lot about the buildings on the magnificent mile. My only wish is that we would’ve done it on our first day here, versus the day before we left, so we would know more about the buildings and which ones to explore a little more. Thank you so much. Look forward to another tour the next time I’m in Chicago!

Even in the Rain the Tour Shines!
Jim was a fantastic guide. Knowledgeable not only about the architectural aspects of the buildings but also has an impressive command of a vast array of Chicago history. He expertly blended interesting anecdotes about the people of Chicago throughout the tour. Highly recommended!

Fun and informative
Fun and Informative. Enjoyed our tour with docent Bob Morehead who described architecture style and elements, history and relevant stories of the buildings we have walked by many times with only a passing glance. We have better appreciation of their elegance and significance to Chicago.

Thank you for the great review and for braving the Chicago winter weather with us! We're so happy you enjoyed the tour and appreciate the recommendation. If the weather is frigid the next time you visit Chicago, be sure to check out our building tours. They are interior building tours that are cozy warm. We hope to see you again!

Interesting and enjoyable tour!
I took this tour with Mitch, and it was so interesting! His explanations were clear and organized, yet he truly tailored the experience to his audience (and in consideration of the cold weather!). He was a wealth of information, with interesting facts and quotes. Now I can walk up and down Michigan Avenue enjoying the buildings I got to know through his tour.

It’s wonderful to hear that his insights and stories have given you a new appreciation for the buildings along Michigan Avenue. We hope you’ll join us again for another tour soon!

Great Mag Mile Walking Tour
We took this tour with Mitch. There was one other couple on the tour and it was a beautiful warm November day. Mitch was really knowledgeable and we learned a great deal about the building styles along Michigan Ave. as well as about the personalities of the movers and shakers in Chicago. There’s a fair amount of walking - an hour and a half that flew by but wear comfortable shoes and be dressed for the weather. This was another great CAC volunteer led tour
